Subject: | Difference between mark II and mark III |
Is there a way to tell the difference between a Mk II and a Mk III just by looking?
I'm looking at a plane that is listed as a Mk III. It was originally used
as an ultralight trainer and wasn't N numbered until 2003. The current owner
knows the history of the plane but because it was an estate sale records are
missing prior to 2003. I don't mind which model it I and I'm going through the
entire plane.

Kolbers:
There is a great deal of difference between a MKII and a
MKIII:
-MKIII has 6" tail boom and main wing spars. MKII has 5".
-MKIII airframe completely different and much, much
stronger.
-MKIII has flaps. MKII doesn't.
-MKIII has unique updated folding elevator control
mechanism. MKII doesn't.
-Much more room in the MKIII.
-MKIII and MKII are not in the same ball park.
Of course, the above comments are my own opinion.

Well this definitely has flaps. Thanks its exactly the type of information I was
looking for. Are the specs for early Mk III's similar to current models? Gross
weight, cruise speed, Vne etc?
